Answer to Question 2
There are many definitions and approaches to persuasion. Three common definitions are useful: Persuasion is defined as communication intended to influence choice; a process with the goal of shaping, reinforcing, or changing the responses of behaviors of others; and as Rhetoric, persuasion is defined as the capability to discover in every given case the available means logos, pathos, and ethos of persuasion (Aristotle) Some common misconceptions about persuasion are that Persuasion is not simply offering information and letting the audience members make up their own minds (that is an informative presentation). Persuasion is arguing for a particular view after presenting possible options. Persuasion is not coercion. Persuasion is taking a stand and doing everything ethical within your power to convince others that your proposal is the better one.
